In the mobile communication systems, security (encryption) offered by the network operator only applies on the wireless link. Data delivered through the mobile core network may not be protected. Existing end-to-end security mechanisms are provided at application level and typically based on public key cryptosystem. This paper introduces two encryption mechanisms based on the RSA scheme and the ID-based scheme to provide end-to-end security for SMS. We implement these two mechanisms over the standard SMS network architecture and estimate the encryption overhead. Our study indicates that the ID-based mechanism has advantages over the RSA mechanism in key distribution and scalability of increasing security level for mobile service.

Details: ROBOVEDA – the name that snatched everyone’s mind is back again with more magnificence and grandiosity. This influential national level robotics symposium, which is one of its kinds in the entire country, signifies “knowledge in robotics”. We, the Robotics club of SNIST, take the privilege in conducting such a matchless technical festival. The main objective of conducting such a technical fiesta is to offer a domain for the convergence of all the intellectual resources in the mighty field of robotics. We, at SNIST show honor, and respect the ancient Indian culture and wondrous wisdom. Thus our venture is to grow to such an extent that it shall provide the world a Fifth Veda on Robotics like the four priceless Vedas that India has gifted to the world. This year the team Roboveda takes pride in edifying the theme “Unveiling the ancient India-Mystique of the metal myth”.

This time, the fest would be of highest technical attribute with all the events very well upgraded which would test the technological know-how of the students and apparently the competition would be of the utmost eminence which would certainly test the engineering insight of each and every participant in various concepts of robotics. Rejuvenate spirits to stretch your imagination to its limits, innovate things and become android masters.

Events: Robotics, Workshops, Paper Presentatiosn, Guest Lectures and many other on the spot events.
